Ryukyung-gi, Jungnang-gu Mayor, Takes Direct Snow Removal Action Amid Heavy Snowfall

Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Gyeong-gi) carried out prompt snow removal operations to minimize the inconvenience caused to residents by the heavy snowfall continuing since the morning of the 30th and to prevent safety accidents.

The district held an emergency countermeasure meeting chaired by Mayor Ryu Gyeong-gi and activated an emergency support duty system internally. Mayor Ryu urged, "We will mobilize all available equipment and personnel to carry out snow removal operations."

Immediately, 530 employees including Mayor Ryu Gyeong-gi, 38 pieces of equipment, and 156 tons of snow removal materials such as calcium chloride and salt were urgently deployed across all 16 neighborhoods to conduct snow removal work.

They thoroughly inspected main roads, slopes, and vulnerable areas, and worked hard to prevent safety accidents by clearing snow accumulated in every corner where residents walk, such as bus stops and narrow alleys.

Mayor Ryu also participated in snow removal operations around Sangbong-dong and Mangwoo History and Culture Park. Together with residents, he directly cleared snow from every corner of the alleys in Sangbong-dong and from locations within Mangwoo History and Culture Park, including the portrait wall and the joint grave site of Yu Gwan-sun, ensuring the safety of the residents.

Mayor Ryu Gyeong-gi said, "We prioritize the safety of our residents and are thoroughly responding to prevent any unexpected safety accidents with all staff. We also ask residents to actively participate in creating a safe Jungnang by clearing snow in front of their homes and stores for the safety of everyone."
